Audrey Hénocque

Audrey Hénocque is a prominent French politician and the first deputy in charge of finances for the Green mayor of Lyon, Grégory Doucet. Aged in her forties, she has been in a wheelchair since a car accident at the age of 15 left her without the use of her arms and legs. Despite the challenges, Hénocque oversees a significant investment plan for the city of Lyon worth 1.3 billion euros, focusing on energy renovation of buildings amidst budget cuts from the state. She is one of the few elected officials in France with a visible disability, representing a small percentage of the country's political landscape.
